jobs

jobs: jobs [-lnprs] [jobspec ...] or jobs -x command [args]

Lists the active jobs.  The -l option lists process id's in addition
to the normal information; the -p option lists process id's only.
If -n is given, only processes that have changed status since the last
notification are printed.  JOBSPEC restricts output to that job.  The
-r and -s options restrict output to running and stopped jobs only,
respectively.  Without options, the status of all active jobs is
printed.  If -x is given, COMMAND is run after all job specifications
that appear in ARGS have been replaced with the process ID of that job's
process group leader.
